Column: Trump 2.0 won’t reverse Biden’s critical minerals push
Donald Trump has described the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) as a "green scam" and vowed to repeal it after he returns to the White House in January.
TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwire – July 26, 2012) – Cadman Resources Inc. (CNSX:CUZ) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the Company has concluded negotiations with Shenba Resources Holdings Limited (“Shenba”), and entered into a letter of intent (the “LOI”) to acquire 65 per cent of the Mbozi Copper project located in the United Republic of Tanzania. Shenba is a Hong Kong based mineral development company that is active in the mineral rich Mbeya region of south western Tanzania. Mbeya is a fast developing mining region where numerous artisan mining operations produce a wide variety of minerals including gold and copper. Management sees great opportunity for exploration and development in this mineral rich, yet underdeveloped part of Africa. Eastern Africa on the whole is a very mineral rich area. Zambia, directly across the border from Mbeya is the largest producer of copper in Africa and the eighth largest producer in the world.
The consideration for granting 65% interest of the Mbozi option, the Company will incur cumulative exploration expenditures of US$3,000,000, pay to the optionors the sum of US$200,000 cash in property payments and issue a total of 5,000,000 common shares and 5,000,000 warrants exercisable at $0.25 of the company to the optionors, all over a three-year period commencing upon receipt of approval by the CNSX.
“Cadman’s vision is to develop and expand past producing mines; we look for ore where it’s already been found. Mbozi certainly fits into that profile as the project area and surrounding lands have been worked for decades by artisanal miners who have just scratched the surface,” say Derek Bartlett, CEO of Cadman.
About Mbeya Copper Project
The Mbozi Copper Project is located in the Mbozi District of the Mbeya Region in the United Republic of Tanzania. Mbozi District is the most western part of Tanzania and is bordered to the South by Zambia. Mbeya Region has been underexplored using modern technologies in comparison to the northern and eastern parts of Tanzania, but it is now a fast developing mining region with numerous artisan mining operations. These mining operations have produced a wide variety of minerals including gold but the major focus is copper ore shipped to China for processing.
The Mbozi project consists of two adjacent concessions totaling 232.86 km2. Historic sampling and more recent Shenba sampling has yielded samples showing in excess of 50% (per cent) Cu.
